53. 19185 P. atrodentata Same as 3636 in 1938.
    19186 P. walshii Scape up to 1" long bearing 1, 2 or 3 flowers. No farina.
54. 19190 P. bellidifolia.
    19195 P. sikkimensis. A fine form with big flowers, yellow or almost white.
    19203 P. muscoides. 34.
    19204 P. strumosa. See my 19000 A B or C taken at Waitang where a glorious mixture of colours
    19211 P. caveana v. alba
55. 19212 P. tenuiloba
    19213 P. concinna 35. I think this is correct because of the fairly copious yellow
    19216 P. macrophylla v. macrocarpa
    19226 P. caveana v. alba. A good collection of 5 sheets, but they are odd plants
    19227 P. capitata.
56. 19231 P. muscoides. Mixed blue and white, which grow actually touching each
    19244 P. macrophylla v. macrocarpa
    19245 P. glabra
    19251 P. umbratilis. Not fully grown.
    19255 P. caveana - full grown.
57. 19318 P. atrodentata. With new plants growing out from old flower head.
    19325 P. glabra.
    19330 P. waddellii 36. The colour of this is so distinct, that it cannot be confused with P.
    19332 P. umbratilis. I have never seen so much as on this cliff. All of it is very pale indeed, or some
    19346 P. soldanelloides 37 I never noticed before the quite different texture of the corolla. Ask for
58. 19364 P. muscoides. White form. Here v. common.
    19373 P. waddellii. Very common indeed here, in quite big clumps, not singly, as
    19378 P. jonardunii. 38 Common here, on open steep grass hillsides, not so much
    19383 P. caveana. Much scarcer here than round about Waitang.
59. 19392 P. concinna v. alba. 80% of P. concinna here are white, remainder pink purple, no
